Political Economy	Thailand	The military last seized power in 1991, but after middle-class protests and royal intervention, civilian rule was restored in 1992. Since that time, the military's role in politics has been greatly reduced, due to strong public opinion against coups d'etat, a vocal free press, and Thailand's overall political maturation. (references)
	Thailand	One of the most significant steps in that maturation was the enactment of the current constitution in 1997. This constitution, Thailand's 16th since 1932, brought substantial reforms to the Thai political process and expanded the rights and civil liberties of Thai citizens . Reforms mandated by the 1997 constitution, including establishment of a National Counter Corruption Commission, a Constitutional Court, a national Human Rights Commission, and a new national Election Commission have helped Thailand move toward a more transparent and open system of government.
